PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS Shotguns Guide
A shotgun is a powerful firearm that is suited for close quarters and whose effectiveness diminishes in distance (as the bullets disperse into a wider area).
The shotguns, unlike other firearms, do not have a predefined path and instead, they will be unpredictable (since a shotgun is generally a smoothbore firearm, which means that the inside of the barrel is not rifled). The advantage of the shotgun, however, is that it can hit multiple targets at close quarters. Usually, shotguns are fed with shotgun shells, which contain various spherical pellets, creating the effect of dispersion in every shot.
